RENO, Nev. (KOLO) – The new location for the National Championship Air Races has been announced as Roswell, New Mexico.
The city will host the air races in 2025.
“We’re thrilled to bring our honored tradition of racing to Roswell and are confident that they have both the enthusiasm and resources to expand the future of our races for many generations to come,” said Fred Telling, CEO and chairman of the board for the Reno Air Racing Association. “While Roswell was chosen, we are truly grateful for the overwhelming support, dedication and enthusiasm shown by all the communities who submitted their bids to host our event. It was incredibly difficult to select a final location as each venue had their own unique strengths and challenges. At the end of the day, we are thankful and deeply appreciative of the teams in Pueblo and Casper who invested their time and efforts in the process.”
The selection of Roswell comes at the conclusion of a lengthy selection process in which the cities of Casper, Wyoming and Pueblo, Colorado were also chosen as finalists to host the event.
